Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Set during World War I on an isolated country estate just outside London, Rebecca West's haunting novel The Return of the Soldier follows Chris Baldry, a shell-shocked captain suffering from amnesia, as he makes a bittersweet homecoming to the three women who have helped shape his life. Will the devoted wife he can no longer recollect, the favorite cousin he remembers only as a childhood friend, and the poor innkeeper's daughter he once courted leave Chris to languish in a safe, dreamy past—or will they help him recover his memory so that he can return to the front? The answer is revealed through a heartwrenching, unexpected sacrifice. The text of this Modern Library Paperback Classic was set from the first American edition, published in 1918, and features original illustrations by Norman Price. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780812971224

Book Description Softcover. Condition: New. Modern Library Pbk. Ed. A soldier returns home transformed by World War I, sending shock waves through the lives of three women, in Rebecca Wests groundbreaking debut novelJenny has been waiting for the return of her cousin, Lieutenant Chris Baldry, from the faraway front lines of the war in France. She has kept vigil alongside Chriss wife, Kitty, who has also been mourning the death of their first child. However, when Chris returns to their isolated estate outside of London, he is a man transformed, suffering from shell shock and believing he is still twenty years old. He is baffled by his surroundings, which have somehow aged beyond his memory, and hes hopelessly, obsessively in love with a woman. Except-the woman hes in love with is not his wife. He doesnt even remember her, or the son they lost. Instead, he declares his undying love for Margaret, a poor innkeepers daughter with whom he shared a passionate summer romance fifteen years prior.Rebecca West published her often-overlooked debut novel at the age of only twenty-six during the height of World War I, and was one of the first writers to explore the impact of posttraumatic stress in literature. The result is a tense, gripping portrait of sacrifice, regret, and the transformative power of war to alter our understanding of ourselves. Seller Inventory # DADAX0812971221
